Why We Started the Free Tuition Programme?

We believe that…
Every child deserves access to quality education, regardless of race or religion.
The Free Tuition Programme was established at 577 Yishun Ring Road in 2003 to give back to the community, specifically to motivate and help the financially-challenged students in Yishun to achieve their potential academically. In 2013, Cape of Colours officially adopted the Free Tuition Programme as one of its initiatives.
The Free Tuition Programme supports students in both primary and secondary school. Classes are held on Saturday and presently cover English, Mathematics or Chinese taught by experienced and dedicated educators.

Let's Read Together

Reading @ Library
Besides our free tuition programme, Cape of Colours had set up a library for our students to encourage them to borrow books and pick up the habit of reading. New books are added to the library every now and then. To further cultivate a love for reading, we had also introduced a Library Loyalty Card in 2025, offering milestone rewards to encourage consistent reading habits. Teachers are also encouraged to dedicate 15 minutes for students to visit the library and borrow a book of their choice.

Testimonials
Stories from our students
“
This tuition is truly beneficial to me with the help of many kind and patient teachers. I have never passed Maths from Primary 3 onwards and I lost complete interest in it at Secondary 1. I took my N Levels last year and I obtained a grade 3 for my Maths. Without the help of these teachers that ever taught me before, I would not have passed my Maths and would not have made it to Secondary 5.

The teachers are very friendly and kind. They gave us motivation to overcome the challenges we are having. They have the patience to teach a student that have difficulties understanding certain questions or topics.
